"الإنسان لغز. يحتاج إلى أن يُكشَف، وإذا قضيت حياتك كلها في كشفه، فلا تقل إنك أضعت الوقت. أدرس ذلك اللغز لأنني أريد أن أكون إنساناً."

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Simplified Meaning:

People are complex and difficult to fully understand. Figuring out what makes a person tick is like solving a puzzle that can take a lifetime. But spending your time trying to understand yourself and others isn't a waste—it’s important and valuable. For example, think about how people go to therapy to understand their feelings and actions better. This helps them become happier and more well-adjusted. The quote suggests that dedicating time to understanding human nature, both your own and others', helps you grow into a better person. It’s telling us that the journey of self-discovery and understanding is worthwhile and meaningful.
